The Case of Love

Chapter 119 Hand in hand
Just like what Zhou Yifeng and his team had investigated, Zhou Yiran had studied abroad before and had only returned to Zhengcheng the year before. The group boss wanted his adopted son to take over and honored him as the group's number two figure, codenamed Lao Z. Although Zhou Yiran respected his adoptive father and was grateful for his upbringing, he was very resistant to the business he was doing. This time, he was ordered to come to Beijing, and he had no choice. However, he didn't know that this was a trap set by his adoptive father. When he came this time, everyone in the group thought he was coming to Beijing to do a deal, and in their opinion, Lao Z's personal involvement must be a big deal. After getting the news, the undercover told the Zhengcheng Anti-Drug Brigade about Lao Z's visit to Beijing, which just happened to fall into the trap of the group boss.

Although Zhou Yifeng hated Zhou Bicheng very much, when Zhou Bicheng said this, he kept looking at him with joy in his eyes.

Their previous investigation results, plus Zhou Bicheng's confession, were enough to prove that his brother Zhou Yiran was not engaged in drug trafficking. Moreover, after he came back, he saved him twice.

Zhou Bicheng confessed to drug trafficking and raping Xia Mo and several other girls, but he fell silent when asked about the fire in the garment factory. After a long time, when Zhou Yifeng thought he was going to quibble again, he made a request, saying that he wanted to talk to Su Xiaohan alone. There were some things he only wanted to talk to Su Xiaohan.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yifeng said that he would not agree to his request, and his attitude was very firm. Su Xiaohan looked at him and motioned him to go out with her.

They left the interrogation room together, and Su Xiaohan asked with a smile, "Captain Zhou, are you worried that I won't be able to control my emotions, will be irritated by him, and then beat him up?"

Zhou Yifeng's thoughts were seen through by her, and he frowned and said, "Xiao Han, have you ever thought that at this point, he still made such a request, it is very likely for this purpose. Publicly and privately, he is the person you hate the most. He harmed your father and Xia Mo. He just seized on this point to irritate you and make you make a mistake!"

Su Xiaohan did not deny it and consoled him, "You are right. It is not surprising that a man like him has such sinister intentions. But you underestimate me. I will control my emotions and I will not lynch him, because the law will give him the punishment he deserves. Since he said that some things he only said to me, I will listen to what he really wants to say. I guess he might confess to the fire in the garment factory."

"Okay, I'll ask Director Zhao. If he agrees, I'll let you go in alone and I'll watch you in the monitoring room." Zhou Yifeng didn't insist.

After obtaining Zhao Ansheng's consent, Zhou Yifeng let Su Xiaohan enter the interrogation room. He watched them in the monitoring room.

Su Xiaohan calmed down and sat down opposite Zhou Bicheng again, saying coldly: "Zhou Bicheng, we agree to your request. I can talk to you alone. Just say whatever you want to say!"

"Xiaohan, don't be like this. It makes me uncomfortable when you do this." Facing Su Xiaohan, Zhou Bicheng's tone softened again.

Su Xiaohan was speechless and said sternly, "Faced with a toxic fan, a person who harmed my father and my best friend, what do you think I should do? Should I smile at you? Okay, Zhou Bicheng, don't test my patience. Just tell me now, don't waste time!"

Intimidated by her imposing manner, Zhou Bicheng did not dare to provoke her again, and said solemnly: "Xiao Han, I'm sorry! That year, I met your father Su Junan because of business. He was a very good person and we had a pleasant relationship. But one time, he came to my house to find me and accidentally saw something he shouldn't have seen and heard something he shouldn't have heard. I asked him not to tell anyone, but he didn't agree and asked me to stop and not make the same mistake again. I was very nervous at the time, afraid that he would tell others about my affairs, so I discussed it with my cousin and wanted to teach him a lesson. However, I didn't expect it to be so serious. The garment factory caught fire and he died in the fire..."

Zhou Bicheng paused, with a look of guilt on his face.

The more Su Xiaohan listened, the sadder she felt. The scene from a few years ago came to her mind again, and her heart seemed to be going through the torture all over again.

That day, after the fire was put out, his father Su Junan and several workers were carried out of the factory, and their identities were unrecognizable. After DNA comparison, they claimed his father's body and buried him.

In the countless nights since then, her father's unrecognizable appearance has been her lingering nightmare. Now, the murderer who murdered her father is in front of her, she can't help but hate him! She wants to strangle him to death and then cut him into pieces!

She stood up suddenly, her fingers twisted in anger and clenched into fists as if she could explode at any time.

In the monitoring room, Zhou Yifeng was very nervous when he saw Su Xiaohan's mood change. He was about to rush into the interrogation room to find her when he saw Su Xiaohan sitting down again. What he was worried about did not happen.

Zhou Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief and continued watching the surveillance video.

"Zhou Bicheng, put away your face! At this point, there is no need for you to hide it anymore. Destroying the factory circuits, causing the factory to catch fire, and then my father dying in the fire, this is what you want to see most. For someone like you, a person who can't speak is the safest. Forget it, I'm too lazy to look at your hypocritical look anymore, it really makes me sick!" After saying that, Su Xiaohan got up and was about to go out.

"Xiaohan, I'm sorry, but I really like you! If I had known you earlier, I would never have hurt Junan!" Zhou Bicheng was very upset and yelled at Su Xiaohan.

Su Xiaohan stopped, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and said disdainfully: "A scumbag like you doesn't deserve to like me!"

After saying that, she pushed the door and left without looking back.

Seeing his girlfriend being so domineering, Zhou Yifeng secretly cheered. If there wasn’t someone next to him, he really wanted to rush over and give her a big hug.

The dust has settled, and Zhou Bicheng, Zhou Bishan, Du Peng, Chen Hongjie and others will all face legal sanctions.

Half a month later, Zhou Yiran was discharged from the hospital, and the Zhou and Su families had a dinner together.

The garment factory fire case was solved, the Zhou family of four was reunited, Su Xiaohan and Zhou Yifeng confirmed their relationship... they had too many happy events to celebrate.

Seeing her daughter and Zhou Yifeng so happy together, Li Aifang had already let go of her prejudice against the police profession. Moreover, she had made a mistake before and mistook the extremely evil Zhou Bicheng for a good person. She felt guilty and thought that her vision was not good enough, so she still had to believe in her daughter's choice.

During the dinner, Liu Yuling gave Su Xiaohan the ancestral jade bracelet, saying that it was from the Qianlong period and passed down from Zhou's great grandmother. There were two jade bracelets in total, one for Su Xiaohan and the other for Zhou Yiran's future daughter-in-law.

Su Xiaohan blushed. From what Liu Yuling said, she seemed to be treating her as her future daughter-in-law.

"Come, Xiaohan, let me help you put it on!" Zhou Yifeng took the jade bracelet from his mother's hand, pulled Su Xiaohan's hand, and was about to put it on.

"Yifeng, this jade bracelet is too valuable, I can't take it!" Su Xiaohan knew a little about jade and could tell that the jade bracelet was of very good quality, definitely top quality. Zhou Yifeng smiled with sparkling eyes and joked, "No matter how valuable the jade bracelet is, it is not as important as you. My mother gave it to you, so you should accept it! Unless you don't want to be the daughter-in-law of our Zhou family!"

After hearing what he said, Su Xiaohan couldn't refuse and put on the jade bracelet obediently.

Seeing Zhou Yifeng's sincere and somewhat naive look, Li Aifang liked him even more.

She was thinking, if her husband were here, how happy he would be to see this scene.

Beside Su Xiaohan, although Su Xiaoxin and Zhou Yiran met for the first time, they chatted very well. Speaking of Zhou Yiran's experience over the years, Su Xiaoxin admired him very much. She couldn't imagine how he survived in such a dangerous and harsh environment.

Su Xiaohan quietly asked Zhou Yifeng: "Yifeng, do you think there is a chance between my sister and your brother?"

Zhou Yifeng's handsome thick eyebrows slightly twisted, and he teased her, "I think they are a good match. However, if they really get together, should I call you 'sister' or 'sister-in-law'? This is a difficult question!"

Su Xiaohan was so annoyed by him that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and she wanted to pinch him on the face.

While the two were playing, Zhou Yifeng's cell phone rang. He looked down and saw that it was Wang Zecheng calling.

As soon as Zhou Yifeng picked up the phone, he heard Wang Zecheng shouting, "Old Zhou, Li Bo called me and said that the undercover agent was exposed! He was thrown into the woods on the outskirts of Zhengcheng!"

Zhou Yifeng was very distressed. He paused for a moment before asking, "Is there any surveillance camera nearby?"

"No, there is no surveillance in the suburbs. Let's talk about the specific details when we meet! Director Song from the Zhengcheng Public Security Bureau contacted our Director Zhao and said that they wanted to find our two teams for support!" Wang Zecheng was very excited.

"Okay, when are we going?" Zhou Yifeng asked.

"Director Zhao said the sooner the better, so let's set off today!" said Wang Zecheng.

"Okay, I'll notify the team to gather at the bureau, and then we'll go to the airport together!" Zhou Yifeng responded.

Because it was inconvenient to disclose the case to his family, Zhou Yifeng hung up the phone and only said that he was going to Zhengcheng Public Security Bureau to assist in the investigation and would take Su Xiaohan away.

The elders in both families understood their work and told them not to worry about home and to be careful outside.

Zhou Yiran pulled his brother aside and asked in a low voice, "Xiaofeng, tell me the truth, is your trip to Zhengcheng this time related to my adoptive father?"

When it comes to the case, Zhou Yifeng remained silent, not knowing how to answer.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yiran was very calm and said with a firm look: "Xiaofeng, although he is my adoptive father and has done me a favor, if necessary, I am willing to cooperate with you to stop them from continuing to commit crimes. Ever since the day I found out that my adoptive father was selling drugs, I wanted to stop him, but he was too stubborn and would not listen to me. He even wanted me to inherit his so-called business..."

Zhou Yiran choked up a little while speaking, and Zhou Yifeng could see that Zhou Yiran was very distressed by that man's behavior. After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother, Xiaohan and I will go back to the bureau first. If I need anything, I will definitely find you! I also hope that my brother will help us out of righteousness!"

Zhou Yiran nodded with tears in her eyes and said nothing more.

Zhou Yifeng took Su Xiaohan's hand and left the restaurant.

In the future, they will work hand in hand to protect the peace of the area...
